About the Moot template
Built for associations that members join
Moot suits a neighborhood or civic association, a community club, or a local business or professional association. The home page opens with who the association is for, a membership link and four other quick links, then says what you work on.
What's on the site
- Home: what you do, three things you work on, a few figures, questions, news and a newsletter sign-up
- About: your story, the board and your business members
- Board: every board member, each with a page
- Events and News: each item with its own page
- Membership: three tiers with a payment button each, a membership form and questions about dues
- Get involved: three projects and a volunteer form
- FAQs and Contact
What to know
Membership buttons open your own Stripe Payment Links; Sitelas does not process money or keep a member list. Forms, newsletter sign-ups included, send messages to your Sitelas inbox; Sitelas does not send newsletters, so send yours from your own email tool. There are no member log-ins, so anything members-only is something visitors ask the office for. Names, dues, figures and photos are samples to replace.
When to pick something else
Moot is the wrong template for these. Where there is a better one, it is linked.

- Candidate or ballot campaign with endorsements and volunteers — try Quorum
- Association that needs member logins, a members-only document library or online voting

Key Highlights
Questions about Moot
What should an association website include?
What the association does and who it is for, how to join and what it costs, who is on the board, what is coming up, what the board has decided, and how to get in touch. Moot has a page for each: a membership page with three tiers, a payment button for each and a membership form, a board page linking to a profile of every board member, events and news, a volunteer page with a sign-up form, questions and answers, and a contact page.
Can members pay their dues on the site?
Yes, through your own Stripe Payment Links: each membership tier has a button that opens a link you set up in Stripe. Sitelas does not process or hold money, and there are no member log-ins, member list or automatic renewal reminders. People who would rather pay by check can send the membership form instead. The tiers are samples: rename them to suit a club or a professional association.
Who is Moot for?
Moot is built for a neighborhood or civic association that members join for a yearly fee, a residents' association with an elected board and a members' meeting and a community club or society with membership tiers, events and a newsletter. Not built for charity raising money for programs with goals and progress bars — try Almoner instead.
What pages come with Moot?
9 pages, already written and laid out: Home, About, Board, Events, News, Membership, Get involved, FAQs and Contact. Add, rename or remove pages whenever you like.
Can Claude or ChatGPT build my site from Moot?
Yes. Connect Sitelas to your AI agent and ask for a site that uses Moot. It fills in your details, sends you a preview link, and publishes when you approve. The same chat can keep running the site afterwards.
Can I change Moot without code?
Yes. The Atkinson Hyperlegible and DM Sans type, all 9 pages and the person entries, every photo and every colour can be changed in the visual editor, or by asking your AI agent.
What does it cost?
Nothing to start, with no trial clock. A free site runs on a sitelas.com address; Pro is $9 a month per site ($90 a year) for your own domain, analytics and more room.
Make Moot yours
All 9 pages open in the editor already written, with 8 starter person entries. Make the words and photos yours, then publish.
